New tail drive gear ratio question
Hello all,
Just wondering if anyone knows off hand if the newer tail drive gears set are a speed up or slow down ratio? I have always had to do the kde mod to get the tail to have enough anti torque pitch to hold on hard collective moves at the head speed I want to fly at? It would be nice to not have to?

Yep. When you go close to 4000 RPM, any vibes on the tail can make it explode. Lower ratio and longer tail blades let you run it at lower rpm.

Yet again Align catering to the high headspeed crew... I like my Trex helis but they do lack foresight for us "low headspeed" guys that don't want to twist the universe to have a good flying machine!
